Went with three others yesterday for Tuesday tasting night. This was their first in 2023 and we had done this several times last year and enjoyed it. We always arrive early to claim a table for 4 as one of us is impaired with dementia and gets anxious when confronted with people they are not familiar with. So we claim a table and head to the patio to enjoy a glass of wine and appetizer before the tasting. This had never been a problem previously. Yesterday, when we came back into the restaurant from the patio to claim our designated table, we found it was pushed together with 2 other tables to accommodate a larger group. I asked the manager, who turned out to be the owner, why this happened, he replied that the wine tastings were community tables and there was nothing he would do for us as more people came than were anticipated. So we were forced to a large community table and it got worse from there. Funny thing, there turned out to be several no shows throughout the room. We could have easily been accommodated with our own table but he was unwilling. The tasting itself was unimpressive. Past tastings included a description of the wines with each food pairing. Did not happen yesterday, so we did not know which wines were being served and why with the cold piece of pizza, watery pasta dish and chewy lamb chops. For the all inclusive price of $35 plus mandatory 20% gratuity. But the best is yet to come. When we left the restaurant I told the owner I planned to tell all my friends and to Yelp him about our experience. He told me to f* of and never come back. Antonio, the deceased chef/owners name sake is rolling in his grave. I have never been treated so shabbily in a restaurant anywhere. There are numerous superior restaurant choices out there, skip this one.
